Current through Register 2024 Notice Reg. No. 38, September 20, 2024

Service shall be accumulated by qualifying pay period as defined in section 599.608 of these regulations.

(a) Seniority credit in a class that has been abolished, combined, divided or otherwise altered shall be granted at the rate of one point for each qualifying pay period.

(b) Service that is part-time shall receive seniority credit at the fraction of the full-time rate that corresponds to the employee's time base. In order for a part-time month of service to qualify for fractional seniority credit an employee working in an agency in which the full-time workweek is 40 hours, must work at least that fraction of 88 hours that corresponds to the employee's time base. This standard shall be proportionately adjusted for service in agencies in which the full-time workweek is other than 40 hours.

(c) Only that service under emergency appointment that was followed by other service without a break shall receive seniority credit.
